My chickens on ABC's Nightline tonight!!

[ibpboo]

Great job!
Shows like this may help those who are trying to legalize chickens in their town!

I missed it! How did it go?

Will have to see if I can find it on Youtube... no luck so far

You can see the segment on my blog

I hope the segment will encourage people to decide to keep chickens and to make them legal in more places.

Thanks for all of the nice comments!! It's been a fun time reading them.

Oh my gosh.....that's too great!!! That segment puts us chickeners in a wonderful positive spotlight! It makes us seem"NORMAL". So others don't say...."what a chicken as a pet?, that is so weird here in the city".
So HA!!! to all those people who think I am strange for having chickens and a duck as a pet!!!!!
I shall email that segment to some of my daughters friends moms who think it's unhealthy and we are bizarre people for having chickens and a duck. They will let my daughter come to their house, but will not let their kids come to mine! I will post a picture of my backyard as soon as I get my camera battery charged.

Great segment!

That was really cool. Pretty chickens by the way.

I think you and your daughter did an excellent job.

Great job. You give a good name to keeping hens!

I was told that I couldn't order less than 25 so had to buy my six in a feed store which had limited available breeds from which to choose. From whom did you order?

Thanks for sharing!

 

[marthalazar]

I ordered from www.mypetchicken.com and was able to order 3 chickens of different breeds. I highly recommend them. The chicks came alert and very healthy.

I'm glad the nightline piece met with approval. And thanks for all of the nice notes. I have a post on my blog of the first year with the girls if anyone is interested. You can see how the chicks were shipped.
